Have U Heard??

Katherine Heigl, our favorite actress from Grey’s Anatomy is on the cover of August’s issue of In Style Magazine.

In the magazine, Heigl opened up about her husband, her brother’s death and her mother’s battle with breast cancer.

 Here are some highlights:

On using a stylist:

“If it’s the Emmy’s or the Oscar’s I need a little extra help, but I just like to do myself because I don’t like all the hoopla.”

On living life despite tragedy:

“Here’s the deal: This is what my family and I have been through [her older brother died in a car accident and her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer], and although we’re not perfect, we are survivors… No one in my family ever said, ‘Life’s not worth living because this happened or that happened to me.’ It’s always worth living, and living well.”

On knowing what she wants:

 ”In my early 20s, I didn’t know who I was or what I wanted… I was fed up with trying to be somebody else, and got really lucky and met a great guy [husband Josh Kelley] who loved me for me. I keep telling my friends, seriously, write down what you want and make it specific. Like, I’m talking, do you want a beach house in Venice? Be specific and be creative and define not only what you want in your career but what you want in your personal life.”

 Notable Quote:

“Isn’t it better to be alone than pretend you’re someone else? Be you. Find you. Be happy with that.”

I can’t wait to read the complete interview.  Katherine Heigl tells it like it is – no hashing words here.
